officially now vice president, again, for his second term, having taken the oath of office administered by supreme court justice sonya sotomayer. there s a little joke there about justice sonya sotomayer is on a book tour so theyed that how change the schedules around to make a book appearance. i want to get back to you, the issue of guns here. because the president with the vice president, obviously, was spearheaded the 1994 crime bill. it was the 1994 crime bill that included the assault weapon ban and there s a lot of looking back now at that legislation about what it did and didn t do and governor, i m curious what your sense of what that bill did. this is the problem. you can buy a weapon that shoots a single bullet when you buy it. and you can take it home and you can put a magazine on it and suddenly, it s it can do the things we ve now seen happen place after place after place.
at the very least, under the 94 law, those larger magazines were not legal. and in large part, didn t exist. it doesn t mean that, you know, some of them didn t somehow get somewhere but they didn t exist by and large. and just as in the 30s, machine guns wam about and criminals got machine guns and we decided people shouldn t have machine gups. guess what? we don t see that type of weapon. people shouldn t have grenades. we decide that was illegal and we don t see a lot of crimes committed that way and that s what the 94 bill did. now, it was too broad with respect to the definition of an assault weapon and that was a weakness but other than that, it did some really good things. but the devil is in the details here. i want to play the vice president talking about the specific issue of magazines and their capacity. and then, talk about the ways in which the definition of what assault weapons are and were actually mattered in the details. we can t say assault weapon ban
wow. huge. claws can you imagine? that would be delicious. so good. also, we hate flies. we have so many because of the crazy weather. this guy has come up with something, very cool here. a salt-shooting gun that kills flies. who knew that salt would kill flies? apparently he launched the idea on one of those fundraising sites forond sites called indie-go-go. asking for $15,000 to launch a fly shotgun. it shoots salt at flies. and the salt kills the flies. a true salt weapon. not bad for humans either. interestingly, oakland had an 82-year-old ban on dance marathons. the city council voted to eradicate that. had something to do with so-called morality laws.
